From fcc5eaea2d234162dfb8258372dd897bc2a1b862 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Leo Yan Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2026 18:05:21 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] perf: arm_spe: Make wakeup range check overflow safe The current code checks whether the wakeup point is in the current writable range by comparing it with handle->head + handle->size. The perf AUX head is a monotonically increasing index, so that addition can overflow when head is close to ULONG_MAX. In that case, a wakeup point which is still inside the free space range can be missed. Use unsigned subtraction to compare the distance from head to wakeup against the handle->size. This can dismiss the issue when addition overflow. This is unlikely to happen in practice, but the change makes the watermark check logically correct.
